Acerca de esta escucha
Barack-Obama-Nummer-1-Lieblingsbuch des Jahres • Publishers-Weekly-Nummer-1-Buch des Jahres • Amazon-Nummer-1-Buch-des-Jahres • New-York-Times-Bestseller
Pottstown, Pennsylvania, 1972: Beim Ausheben der Fundamente für ein neues Baugebiet stoßen die Arbeiter am Grund eines Brunnens auf ein Skelett. Wem es gehörte und wie es dorthin kam, kann nur wissen, wer in den Zwanziger- und Dreißigerjahren in Chicken Hill gelebt hat, einem heruntergekommenen Viertel, in dem eingewanderte Juden und Afroamerikaner das Glück teilten ebenso wie die Sorgen. Es war auch das Viertel von Moshe und Chona Ludlow, die dort ein Theater und ein Lebensmittelgeschäft betrieben. Bis eines Tages ein tauber Waisenjunge auftauchte, den die staatlichen Behörden in eine Anstalt einweisen wollten. Und seine letzte Hoffnung ruhte auf Moshe und Chona und der Gemeinde von Chicken Hill ...
James McBride taucht tief hinab in die Geschichte dieses Viertels und seiner Figuren, in den alltäglichen Kampf am Rande der Gesellschaft, und erzählt durch die Augen der gerade erst Eingewanderten von einem sich rasend schnell verändernden Amerika, das gerade erst dabei war zu werden, was es heute ist. Bis am Ende schließlich die Wahrheit über die Geschehnisse auf dem Chicken Hill ans Licht kommt - und sich einmal mehr zeigt, dass nur die Liebe und die Gemeinschaft - Himmel und Erde - in dunklen Zeiten Halt geben können.

Eine Tour de Force, eine hypnotisierende, bewegende, fast magische Erzählung. McBride schreibt Sätze, die wie Jazzmelodien schwingen.
--The Associated Press
Ein Krimi, der in einem großen amerikanischen Roman steckt. Charmant, klug, herzzerreißend und herzheilend.
--Danez Smith, The New York Times Book Review
Wir alle brauchen – wir alle verdienen – diesen lebendigen, die Liebe bejahenden Roman, der alle Unterschiede überwindet, die uns zu trennen.
--Ron Charles, The Washington Post
Typisch McBride: scharfzüngige Dialoge und mörderisch-mysteriöse Intrigen; die großen Persönlichkeiten seiner Figuren und die großen Handlungsstränge; sein witziger, schnell sprechender Humor; und eine Prosa, die so agil und überschwänglich ist, dass man sich beim Lesen wie bei einer Jazz-Jam-Session fühlt. Die Lektüre von McBride fühlt sich einfach gut an - wir werden getröstet und unterhalten und sind gewappnet für die harten Lektionen, die er auch erteilt.
--The Atlantic

Historia
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Historia
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Historia
The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Historia
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Historia
When I was a little girl, I dreamed a handsome knight would come and rescue me from my wretched mother. He'd ride up on his white steed and break the curse I've been fated to carry since the day I was born. Funny how things changed over time, how the fairytale twisted into something far more crooked—and darker—than I ever imagined. In reality, my knight is scarred and broken, living alone in a castle of bones that overlooks the sea. He isn’t searching for me. He never was.

Guy Montag is a fireman. In his world, where television rules and literature is on the brink of extinction, firemen start fires rather than put them out. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television "family."

McBride explores the ways we learn from the world and the people around us. An antiques dealer discovers that a legendary toy commissioned by Civil War General Robert E. Lee now sits in the home of a black minister in Queens.

Historia
In Miracle at St. Anna, toward the end of World War II, four Buffalo Soldiers from the Army’s Negro 92nd Division find themselves separated from their unit and behind enemy lines. Risking their lives for a country in which they are treated with less respect than the enemy they are fighting, they discover humanity in the small Tuscan village of St. Anna di Stazzema—in the peasants who shelter them, in the unspoken affection of an orphaned child, in a newfound faith in fellow man. And even in the face of unspeakable tragedy, they—and we—learn to see the small miracles of life.

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Good Lord Bird, winner of the 2013 National Book Award for Fiction, Deacon King Kong, and Five-Carat Soul, Kill ’Em and Leave is more than a book about James Brown. Brown embodied the contradictions of American life: He was an unsettling symbol of the tensions between North and South, Black and White, rich and poor. After receiving a tip that promises to uncover the man behind the myth, James McBride goes in search of the “real” James Brown.

In September 1969, a fumbling, cranky old church deacon known as Sportcoat shuffles into the courtyard of the Cause Houses housing project in south Brooklyn, pulls a .38 from his pocket, and, in front of everybody, shoots the project's drug dealer at point-blank range. The reasons for this desperate burst of violence and the consequences that spring from it lie at the heart of Deacon King Kong, James McBride's funny, moving novel and his first since his National Book Award-winning The Good Lord Bird.
